N2 - Polarimetric information can fully reflect the electromagnetic scattering characteristics of radar target. Compact polarization, which can reduce the system complexity while preserving the polarimetric information, has become an important technique of getting polarimetric information in recent years. In this paper we propose a modified implementation for π/4 compact polarimetric mode radar, where the transmitter polarization is orientated at 45°, and the receivers are at 45° and 135° polarizations. A procedure of reconstructing the full polarimetric information and extracting the features are subsequently deduced. From experimental data, we verify the scheme can distinguish different polarimetric scattering mechanisms. The method shows potential to better reconstruct fully polarimetric data and application value in target recognition.
